HOUSTON -- A gunman who died in a shootout with officers in Houston Monday morning was a lawyer who lived in the neighborhood and left a car full of weapons near the scene, the city's police chief said."We are bringing in the bomb squad to secure it safe," Acting Police Chief Martha Montalvo told reporters.

The FBI is at the scene and assisting the investigation, she said.

Montalvo did not reveal the suspect's identity, but told reporters, "he is a lawyer and there were issues concerning his law firm."

Police said nine people were injured in the shooting, one critically and one seriously.

There are no reports of additional suspects, police said.

Witness: Gunshots flew by my face

It was still dark when Antoine Wilson drove through the neighborhood Monday morning and suddenly found himself in the middle of a gunfight.

"I didn't realize I was right there by the shooter," he told CNN affiliate KTRK. "Gunshots, I literally hear the gunshots pass my face, 'cause I'm leaning out the window looking, trying to see."

Then he saw police running down the street.

"You (could) hear people screaming," he told CNN affiliate KTRK. "I'm talking about steady gunshots, just steady shooting, back and forth ... police and the shooter. Helicopters were everywhere."
